At http://nodejs.org/documentation/ it says "Here on nodejs.org you will find three types of documentation, reference documentation, getting started documentation, and tutorials."

I can find the reference documentation (http://nodejs.org/api/) and the tutorials (http://nodejs.org/documentation/tutorials/), but I can't find the "getting started documentation" anywhere. What is this referring too? I want to get started!

Unless I'm missing something, the getting started documentation simply does not exist. If you're interested in contributing, it would be great to write such a documentation, or at least to start a collaborative effort to do that.
If you're looking for a getting started documentation, I would recommend these two nodeschool workshops: https://github.com/rvagg/learnyounode and https://github.com/npm/how-to-npm.

The best place to get started is Node School: http://nodeschool.io/
